I highly doubt this but the weather station in the living room has declared that the general trend for the weather to be SNOWY!!!!!!!!!

Woke Caroline up and jumped on the bed like a three year old too at 3:30AM :p :uhoh:

Just went outside and it's clear if a bit misty and the ground is frosty. But damnit if it doesn't rain I'll cry so Santa if you really do exist you better give me snow or I swear I'll beat you up tonight.

Serious!!!!!! :mark:

We got 32 inches at my apartment on Wednesday so it will be a very white Christmas here in Colorado.

William Hills are offering 1/100 on there being no snow at any of the official weather stations in the whole UK.

It's also reported that the average UK citizen only sees 8 white Christmas Days during their life.

Maths make that an average one snow covered Christmas every ten years, so 1/100 times ten for a nice accumulator still gives you less than bank interest for your ten year bet.

Don't bet for a white Christmas, don't bet against it is my advice :p :
Let the TV do fake snow ;)

You have stayed in Oz Daniel - Amongst the bushfires that have been raging the last few weeks, snow is expected to fall shortly.. Weird hey...

Ian, what you and donkeyJote do on your sparetime is your own business, but what is said about your location is too much information.

Hey England Found your Snow!
It's in the Australian Highlands.
Res In the Middle of our Summer which is normally 30C +
It snowed in Tasmania and Victoria. :crazy:
At least it put most of their Fires out.

Lucky b*ggar, ah well, English weather is 'ollocks all the time. In fact, England sucks completely apart from BTCC, WTCC, WRC, EDC and UKDC.

The last time I looked England had no WRC at all.

The thing that really pisses me off, if that there's a wee bit of mist down south and it's headline news and nobody can cope, while it's clear up here and (relatively) nice weather. Then it clears down there and moves up here for a day, no bother at all but everyone down south is complaining about the "dull" weather and no snow...

Snow in Australia for Xmas. Took my niece up to Lake Mountain and there was over 25cm of snow. She had never seen snow before, was great to see the expression on her face when she first touched snow and then tried to eat as much snow as possible :)

At least the snow helped with the bushfires.

Good luck to you L5!! My niece lives at the USOC training center in Colorado Springs. She was able to fly back from the CO Springs airport on the 22nd in time for Christmas but friends of hers were still stuck at Denver's airport on Christmas Eve. She is due to go back on 12/30 so she can go skiing for New Years. I hope she can get back. Have fun at Rally Boulder!!
Have a great New Year everyone!!!! Stay safe-please don't drink and drive.

Here has been no white christmas. In the evening of 26th December snow came down for a moment and then in a few hours melted away again... :(
